Halloween Hesitation
Fierce jack-o-lanterns burn outside each house
And shadows creep across the empty streets.
Black cats are hissing on a backyard fence
As unknown noises slither through the trees.
It's Halloween again and creatures roam.
Take careful steps into the night. Beware!
Are green-eyed witches lurking out of sight?
Have zombies come alive to hunt for prey?
Hide, hide within your costumes. Think once more.
Is candy really worth the risk you take?
